Below is a revised report on the SMC Team Race with a change of places due to the tie break for 3rd and 4th.
Thanks also must go to John Vandemoer for running an outstanding event as PRO. Adam St. Mary¹s Team Race Intersectional St. Mary¹s College, MD March 11-12 2006 The St. Mary¹s team race was a great event which could not have been possible without the outstanding RC work by the SMC undergrads and the 7 umpires that traveled to St. Mary¹s for this event. A special thanks to Stovy Brown (Chief Umpire), Ken Ward, Jeff Borland, Curtis Flood, Barbara Herbig, Dan Trammel and Jim Walsh. The regatta was run with Limited umpiring and was sailed in both FJ¹s and 420¹s. Saturday: We started the day with a light 5 kts N-NE breeze, which then died and clocked around to the south and then clocked again to the east. Conditions were mixed with a 8 kts southerly and then dieing to a 3-5 kts easterly. The RC did a great job in running 54 races in the changing conditions. Sunday: We sailed the whole day in a southerly which was up and down in velocity, as much as 8 kts and as little as 0 kts.. The RC did a great job again running 37 races but in the end we were eight races short of finishing the second round robin. But will give the RC credit for running 82 races even though only the first round counted for the scores. Final Results Round 1 1. Hobart and William Smith 8-1 2. Georgetown 7-2 3. Stanford 6-3* 4.
